Facelift and patterns of lymphatic drainage.
BACKGROUND It has commonly been assumed that deeper facelift dissection causes greater and more prolonged swelling. OBJECTIVES In this preliminary report, the authors compare the lymphatic reconstitution after multiple techniques of rhytidectomy by means of dynamic lymphoscintigraphy. METHODS Three patients were enrolled in this study. All three were female, were similar in age, and exhibit...
متن کاملThree-dimensional visualization of skin lymphatic drainage patterns of the head and neck.
BACKGROUND Lymphatic drainage from skin on the head and neck is complex. We sought to provide improved visualization and analysis of the patterns of head and neck skin lymphatic drainage using aggregated lymphoscintigraphy data. METHODS Lymphoscintigraphy data from 929 patients with cutaneous melanoma on the head and neck collected at the Sydney Melanoma Unit have been mapped onto a 3-dimensi...
متن کاملSpatio-Temporal Changes of Lymphatic Contractility and Drainage Patterns following Lymphadenectomy in Mice
OBJECTIVE To investigate the redirection of lymphatic drainage post-lymphadenectomy using non-invasive near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging, and to subsequently assess impact on metastasis. BACKGROUND Cancer-acquired lymphedema arises from dysfunctional fluid transport after lymphadenectomy performed for staging and to disrupt drainage pathways for regional control of disease. However, l...
متن کاملLymphatic drainage of the external ear.
BACKGROUND Lymphoscintigraphy reveals inconsistencies in our knowledge of the lymphatic anatomy of the external ear. METHODS Fifteen external ears from 9 unembalmed human cadavers were studied. Six percent hydrogen peroxide was used to find the lymphatic vessels using a surgical microscope. They were injected with a radio-opaque mixture, dissected, photographed, and radiographed to demonstrat...
متن کاملDiscordant lymphatic drainage patterns revealed by serial lymphoscintigraphy in cutaneous head and neck malignancies.
BACKGROUND We analyzed the variability and accuracy of sentinel lymph node (SLN) identification by lymphoscintigraphy performed preoperatively and repeated on the day of operation in patients with melanoma or Merkel cell cancer. METHODS Twenty-five prospectively studied patients had lymphoscintigraphy prior to and on the day of operation. Discordance between lymphoscintograms was defined as c...
